Yeah, but at the conference calls, VCEL stated they VCEL have no competition, a 3 year window ahead of any future competition.

The competition has to complete trials.
The competition has to submit BLA, wait for FDA approval, that alone takes a full year
The competition has to build a sales force
The competition has to acquire a doctor base
The competition has to build a biopsy portfolio if you will
The competition has to get the insurance companies on board

I am sure there is more to the argument as to why VCEL has no
competition for 3 years

[lasers]

That means at least 3 to 5 years for any possible Commercial approval

There is potential competition in phase 3 trials. Sure VCEL has a year or so clear runway. But after that, it's uncertain.

You should go read HSGX last CC before you sound like a clown kid.
“MAYBE 2nd half of 2019” IF this IF that. You refer to ST? We’ll go to ST and see how many ppl even follow HSGX. Go ahead , I’ll wait .....
Ok . You see? NOBODY. Dilution nightmare . If the VCEL lab exploded and everything got backed up, I still wouldn’t touch your “competitor” til 2021. I’d hate to have my investment diluted to nothing before they even get a sniff at commercial. Just saying .
